Instructions
  1. Preheat and Prep: Set your oven to 425°F and grab a large, sturdy baking sheet.
  2. For the Maitake mushrooms, simply tear them gently into small, bite-sized clusters. Add to a large bowl.
  3. For the Pearl Oysters, simply tear them gently into small, bite-sized clusters. Add to bowl with Maitake mushrooms mushrooms.
  4. Shred the Mushrooms: To achieve that perfect pulled texture, take a standard kitchen fork and drag the tines firmly down the stalks of your Royal Trumpet mushrooms to shred them into thin strips (you can also use your fingers to pull them apart). Add to bowl with Maitake and Pearl Oyster mushrooms.
  5. Get the Oil Sizzling: Pour your olive oil right onto the bare baking sheet and slide it into the preheating oven for about 5 minutes. Pro-Tip: Heating the oil on the pan first is the ultimate secret to getting those wonderfully crispy, caramelized mushroom edges!
  6. Season and Roast: Carefully pull the hot baking sheet from the oven and immediately toss your shredded mushrooms directly into the oil—they should sizzle right away! Evenly sprinkle your paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder across the top. Toss thoroughly until every strand is beautifully coated in the spiced oil, spread them into a flat, single layer, and bake for 15 minutes until wilted and golden-brown.
  7. Add slices of your favorite cheese like sliced mozzarella and bake for 2 more minutes until cheese is melted.
  8. Spread butter or olive oil on brioche buns and toast in the oven for last 5 minutes of mushrooms baking.
  9. Assemble Your Masterpiece: Pile the warm, savory barbecue mushrooms generously onto your toasted brioche buns. Smother them with an extra splash of BBQ sauce. Serve immediately!
